[Capri] In upstate New York,
00:03.166 --> 00:05.933 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
the autumn months herald
the harvest of a small fruit
00:06.066 --> 00:08.633 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
bursting with flavor: the grape.
00:09.300 --> 00:10.533 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
Whether it's a regional favorite
00:10.666 --> 00:12.233 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
that originated
here in America...
00:12.366 --> 00:14.300 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
The concord grapes,
they're just yummy.
00:14.433 --> 00:16.233 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
-And everybody knows the flavor.
-They're just yummy.
00:16.366 --> 00:18.333 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
...or imported
European varieties
00:18.466 --> 00:20.166 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
cultivated for winemaking...
00:21.333 --> 00:24.833 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
Well, Riesling is
the most transparent of terroir,
00:24.966 --> 00:26.133 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
of all of the grapes.
00:26.266 --> 00:27.466 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
[Capri] ...or leaves of the vine
00:27.600 --> 00:30.200 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
being used to wrap
a Syrian delicacy...
00:30.333 --> 00:32.000 align:start position:37.5% line:79.33% size:27.5%
This little
pomegranate molasses---
00:32.133 --> 00:33.066 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Whoa!
00:33.200 --> 00:34.566 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
--makes all the difference.
00:34.700 --> 00:37.333 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
...New Yorkers are elevating
this versatile berry
00:37.466 --> 00:39.133 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
to new culinary heights.
00:43.466 --> 00:45.833 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
I'm Capri Cafaro
and I'm on a mission
00:45.966 --> 00:47.900 align:start position:37.5% line:79.33% size:27.5%
to uncover
the incredible stories
00:48.033 --> 00:49.400 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
of the foods we grow...
00:50.600 --> 00:53.000 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
...harvest, create...
00:54.133 --> 00:55.166 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
...and celebrate.
00:55.966 --> 00:57.666 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
Beautiful, amazing meal.
00:58.366 --> 01:00.166 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
So, I'm traveling
America's backroads
01:00.300 --> 01:01.833 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
to learn our cherished
food traditions...
01:01.966 --> 01:02.900 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Whoa.
01:03.033 --> 01:04.466 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
...from those
who make them possible...
01:04.600 --> 01:05.600 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
Look at that.
01:05.733 --> 01:07.566 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
...and are helping
keep them alive.
01:07.700 --> 01:09.266 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
There is so much more to learn.
01:11.366 --> 01:13.066 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Whoa!
01:13.200 --> 01:15.133 align:start position:42.5% line:79.33% size:17.5%
[Capri]
On "America the Bountiful."
01:21.100 --> 01:22.533 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
[announcer] America's farmers
have nourished us
01:22.666 --> 01:24.100 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
for generations,
01:24.233 --> 01:27.466 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
but today they face
unprecedented challenges.
01:27.600 --> 01:30.266 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
American Farmland Trust
works with farmers
01:30.400 --> 01:32.633 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
to help save the land
that sustains us.
01:32.766 --> 01:35.766 align:start position:25% line:10% size:52.5%
Together we can work
to keep America bountiful.
01:38.166 --> 01:39.833 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
[Capri] Grapes have been
cultivated for millennia
01:39.966 --> 01:41.933 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
for their sweet variety
of flavors
01:42.066 --> 01:45.066 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
and more recently studied
for how those flavors
01:45.200 --> 01:47.666 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
are influenced by the
environment in which they grow.
01:49.166 --> 01:51.633 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
Upstate New York
is a viti cultural landmark
01:51.766 --> 01:53.666 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
due to its variety
of microclimates
01:53.800 --> 01:55.900 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
ideal for growing
different types of grapes.
01:56.800 --> 01:58.600 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
In Naples, the annual
Grape Festival
01:58.733 --> 02:02.566 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
celebrates the vibrant flavors
of local grapes in many forms.
02:02.700 --> 02:06.766 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
From wine to donuts,
all the way to grape barbecue.
02:06.900 --> 02:08.666 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
There's also
a heated competition
02:08.800 --> 02:11.633 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
for who can bake the best
grape pie each year.
02:11.766 --> 02:15.033 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
Local historian Trish Lambiase
plays a central role
02:15.166 --> 02:17.566 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
in preserving the legacy
of fruit in this area.
02:20.100 --> 02:22.666 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
[Trish] You can see there are
grape vines everywhere.
02:22.800 --> 02:25.066 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
Even on Main Street
we have vineyards.
02:25.200 --> 02:27.700 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
I know there's a lot of grapes
grown in this region,
02:27.833 --> 02:30.100 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
but is there one
that really stands out
02:30.233 --> 02:34.366 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
as kind of the icon grape
of the area?
02:34.500 --> 02:37.600 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
Absolutely, and that would be
the concord grape.
02:37.733 --> 02:41.533 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
The concord grape was developed
specifically for this climate.
02:41.666 --> 02:44.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
The root stock can withstand
our very cold winters.
02:44.433 --> 02:45.300 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:15%
Right.
02:45.433 --> 02:47.600 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
And our very short
summer growing season.
02:48.633 --> 02:51.833 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
Is there anything special that
is made with concord grapes
02:51.966 --> 02:54.233 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
right here in Naples
and in the surrounding regions
02:54.366 --> 02:57.366 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
that really captures
the community spirit
02:57.500 --> 02:58.700 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
when it comes
to the concord grape?
02:58.833 --> 03:00.100 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
Absolutely.
03:00.233 --> 03:05.566 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
It was all started in 1959 by a
local restauranteur, Al Hodges,
03:05.700 --> 03:08.866 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
selling grape pies
and grape pie slices.
03:09.000 --> 03:10.400 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
And they were so popular
03:10.533 --> 03:13.933 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
that he asked his neighbor,
Irene Bouchard,
03:14.066 --> 03:15.600 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
to start baking for him.
03:15.733 --> 03:17.833 align:start position:37.5% line:79.33% size:27.5%
She's known
as the grape pie lady.
03:17.966 --> 03:20.833 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
She baked from 1959
well into the 80s.
03:20.966 --> 03:21.966 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
Oh my gosh.
03:22.100 --> 03:25.100 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
In 1980 she was baking
300 pies a day.
03:25.233 --> 03:26.166 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Wow!
03:26.300 --> 03:28.700 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
And her record was 8,000 pies
in one season.
03:28.833 --> 03:30.366 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
Well, being the pie lady,
03:30.500 --> 03:33.300 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
definitely Irene Bouchard
has earned that title.
03:33.433 --> 03:34.633 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
Absolutely.
03:34.766 --> 03:37.400 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Is there anyone here at the
Festival that makes a great pie
03:37.533 --> 03:40.466 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
that is kind of in the style
of pie lady Irene Bouchard
03:40.600 --> 03:41.966 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
that I could taste for myself?
03:42.100 --> 03:45.100 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
Oh my goodness, we have
a vendor here, James Kolb,
03:45.233 --> 03:47.933 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and he is everything grape.
03:48.066 --> 03:49.100 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
03:49.233 --> 03:52.200 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
And he is going to be baking
a grape pie here on site
03:52.333 --> 03:55.733 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
in the Irene Bouchard
original style.
03:57.400 --> 03:58.900 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
[Capri] James Kolb
knows a thing or two
03:59.033 --> 04:00.566 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
about the concord grape.
04:00.700 --> 04:03.833 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
His company bakes 30,000
grape pies each summer,
04:03.966 --> 04:06.866 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
each one using a recipe that
is in the regional tradition
04:07.000 --> 04:09.166 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
popularized by Irene Bouchard.
04:10.500 --> 04:11.366 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
[James] I start with
concord grapes.
04:11.500 --> 04:12.600 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:35%
[Capri] Right.
04:12.733 --> 04:13.966 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
[James] They have an advantage
that they're very smooth.
04:14.100 --> 04:15.433 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
So, you start out
with making some puree.
04:15.566 --> 04:16.433 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Yeah.
04:16.566 --> 04:17.766 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
I usually just use a blender
04:17.900 --> 04:20.000 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
and add a little bit of water
to get the smoothness.
04:20.133 --> 04:21.200 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
Add the water and the sugar.
04:21.333 --> 04:22.300 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
[Capri] Okay.
04:23.366 --> 04:25.900 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
And then I like to use
a little bit of lemon.
04:26.033 --> 04:27.800 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
It helps balance
the taste of the pie.
04:27.933 --> 04:28.833 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
Makes sense.
04:28.966 --> 04:30.400 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
And give this a swirl.
04:30.533 --> 04:32.700 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
Get the sugar dissolved
a little bit.
04:32.833 --> 04:33.800 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
I'll help you out.
04:33.933 --> 04:35.233 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
Okay, great.
04:35.366 --> 04:36.566 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
And then we add--
04:36.700 --> 04:38.233 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
This is corn starch.
04:38.366 --> 04:39.233 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
Oh, corn starch.
04:39.366 --> 04:40.633 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
I like corn starch better
as a thickener.
04:40.766 --> 04:41.900 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
The next thing is--
04:42.033 --> 04:43.866 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
The star of the pie,
the concord grape.
04:44.000 --> 04:45.233 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
Yeah, a grape puree.
04:45.366 --> 04:47.133 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
Now, how did you fall in love
04:47.266 --> 04:49.466 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
with making things
with concord grape
04:49.600 --> 04:52.166 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
and that iconic taste
of the region?
04:52.300 --> 04:55.966 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
We started looking at different
kinds of grapes and pies,
04:56.100 --> 04:58.500 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
and I found the most consistent
was the concord grapes.
04:58.633 --> 05:00.000 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
They were just yummy.
05:00.133 --> 05:01.666 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
You're just yummy.
05:01.800 --> 05:02.666 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
Everybody knows that flavor.
05:02.800 --> 05:03.733 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
That's right.
05:03.866 --> 05:05.633 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
Well, I mean, it is what
the region is known for.
05:05.766 --> 05:07.233 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
That's why folks
know it so well.
05:07.366 --> 05:10.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
So, I'm assuming next step
is into the pie shell.
05:10.366 --> 05:11.666 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
Just pour it in the pie shell.
05:11.800 --> 05:14.333 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
And it'll be kind of loose
and everything,
05:14.466 --> 05:18.000 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
but when you bake it,
it will harden right up.
05:18.133 --> 05:19.633 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
You know, it will give you
that pie consistency.
05:19.766 --> 05:20.666 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
[Capri] Sure.
05:20.800 --> 05:23.833 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
The original pie,
the Bouchard pie,
05:23.966 --> 05:25.200 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
it's a double crust, right?
05:25.333 --> 05:26.800 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
[James] Yes.
This is a double crust.
05:26.933 --> 05:28.133 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
And then just pull it back.
05:28.266 --> 05:31.933 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
And then you can be my guest and
go around and pinch the edges.
05:32.066 --> 05:33.066 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
[Capri] All right.
05:34.166 --> 05:35.266 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
After baking in the oven
05:35.400 --> 05:37.700 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
and then cooling
for at least 3 hours,
05:37.833 --> 05:39.466 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
the pie is ready to taste.
05:41.500 --> 05:42.566 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
I am so excited.
05:42.700 --> 05:44.333 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
I feel like I'm going
to be tasting
05:44.466 --> 05:46.900 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
a slice of Naples history.
05:47.033 --> 05:48.266 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
[James] Yes.
05:48.400 --> 05:49.366 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Mmm.
05:52.133 --> 05:53.833 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
Irene Bouchard was on to
something with the double crust.
05:53.966 --> 05:55.133 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
05:55.266 --> 05:58.000 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Because it tamps down
that sweetness.
05:58.133 --> 05:59.133 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
05:59.266 --> 06:01.133 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
And really gives it
a little bit of balance.
06:01.266 --> 06:02.200 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
This is fantastic.
06:02.333 --> 06:04.700 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
I mean, if I were to think
06:04.833 --> 06:07.166 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
of what a concord grape
tastes like in my head,
06:07.300 --> 06:09.000 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
just that boldness.
06:09.133 --> 06:11.800 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Now if you're so good
at making this pie,
06:11.933 --> 06:13.766 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
what else do you make
with concord grapes?
06:13.900 --> 06:16.000 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
We also make grape barbecue.
06:16.133 --> 06:17.433 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
Well, I'm not going anywhere
06:17.566 --> 06:19.933 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
unless you give me
some of this grape barbecue.
06:20.066 --> 06:20.933 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
I've got to try it.
06:21.066 --> 06:22.033 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
I have never heard
of anything like that.
06:22.166 --> 06:23.200 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
-Hot or mild?
-Hot.
06:23.333 --> 06:24.500 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
Bring the heat.
06:24.633 --> 06:25.766 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
[James] Next taste.
06:25.900 --> 06:27.066 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
[Capri] And you use
concord grapes for this too?
06:27.200 --> 06:28.066 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
[James] Yes.
06:28.200 --> 06:29.166 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
Oh my gosh.
06:29.300 --> 06:30.166 align:start position:40% line:79.33% size:22.5%
Same mix.
Same puree.
06:30.300 --> 06:31.166 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
And this is the hot?
06:31.300 --> 06:32.166 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
[James] Yep, that's the hot.
06:32.300 --> 06:33.200 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:35%
Yum, yum, yum.
06:33.333 --> 06:34.566 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
[James] It's got a great
after taste.
06:38.633 --> 06:41.533 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
I'm going to have
to come back here just for this.
06:41.666 --> 06:43.866 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
I love this.
I love sweet and hot.
06:44.000 --> 06:44.866 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
[James] Yes.
06:45.000 --> 06:46.166 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
So, this is perfect for me.
06:46.300 --> 06:48.166 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
You know, I got pie.
06:48.300 --> 06:49.700 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
I got barbecue.
06:49.833 --> 06:53.433 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
I know that the concord grape
can do a lot of things.
06:53.566 --> 06:55.566 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
I'm going to need something
to wash this down with.
06:55.700 --> 06:56.733 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
Got any good ideas?
06:56.866 --> 06:59.100 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
Well, you should take a walk
through the wine walk.
06:59.233 --> 07:00.933 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
Okay, well, I guess that's
going to be the next place.
07:01.066 --> 07:02.666 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
Do they make concord grape wine
over there?
07:02.800 --> 07:03.833 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
[James] Absolutely.
07:04.633 --> 07:06.133 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
[Capri] At the Festival's
Wine Garden,
07:06.266 --> 07:09.066 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
John French pours
a sample of Arbor Hill,
07:09.200 --> 07:12.133 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
a wine made from
local grapes including concords.
07:13.066 --> 07:14.033 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
This is exciting
07:14.166 --> 07:16.333 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
because I've never tried
a concord grape wine.
07:16.766 --> 07:18.766 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
And this one
is actually a blend.
07:18.900 --> 07:22.333 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
So, we take some of what
the Finger Lakes gives us
07:22.466 --> 07:25.233 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
and blend it together
and cheers.
07:25.366 --> 07:26.533 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:17.5%
Cheers.
07:29.966 --> 07:31.000 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
That is nice.
07:31.133 --> 07:32.100 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
That is refreshing.
07:32.233 --> 07:33.233 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:15%
It is.
07:33.366 --> 07:35.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
I bet this is really popular
on a summer day?
07:35.433 --> 07:37.433 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
On a summer day
chilled out on the deck,
07:37.566 --> 07:40.666 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
out on the boat,
it works out wonderfully.
07:40.800 --> 07:43.366 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
And maybe at the festival too.
07:43.500 --> 07:44.733 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
And at the Naples
Grape Festival
07:44.866 --> 07:46.966 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
that is a fine place
to enjoy wine.
07:47.100 --> 07:49.666 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
Well, cheers to concord grapes
and cheers to Naples.
07:52.666 --> 07:54.100 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
[Capri] While New York
has been regarded
07:54.233 --> 07:56.766 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
for growing excellent
culinary grapes like concords
07:56.900 --> 07:58.500 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
since the 19th century,
07:58.633 --> 08:00.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
the Finger Lakes region
has become well known
08:00.833 --> 08:02.000 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
in more recent decades
08:02.133 --> 08:04.733 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
for its contribution
to fine winemaking.
08:04.866 --> 08:08.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
Dr. Konstantin Frank was one
of the original innovators
08:08.300 --> 08:10.733 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
that first brought advanced
winemaking traditions
08:10.866 --> 08:13.966 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
to the Eastern United States
in the mid-20th century.
08:15.333 --> 08:18.866 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
A PhD in Viticulture,
or the science of grape growing,
08:19.000 --> 08:21.266 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
Dr. Frank pioneered
the cultivation
08:21.400 --> 08:23.533 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
of the European wine grape
Vitis Vinifera.
08:24.533 --> 08:29.266 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
Today Dr. Frank's grandson, Fred
and great-granddaughter Meaghan
08:29.400 --> 08:31.866 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
produce over 40
different wines each year
08:32.000 --> 08:33.600 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
and they continue to explore
08:33.733 --> 08:35.900 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
what secrets
New York soil can unlock
08:36.033 --> 08:37.200 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
in the Riesling grape.
08:40.366 --> 08:43.266 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
Where did Dr. Frank come from
when he settled here?
08:43.400 --> 08:47.600 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
He came from Ukraine
first through New York City
08:47.733 --> 08:50.033 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
and then he got a job
at the Cornell Research Station
08:50.166 --> 08:51.333 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
for agriculture.
08:51.466 --> 08:52.333 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
[Capri] Yeah.
08:52.466 --> 08:53.866 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:22.5%
Why here?
08:54.000 --> 08:55.400 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
Why the Finger Lakes?
08:55.533 --> 08:58.433 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
And why this particular
kind of grape?
08:58.566 --> 08:59.733 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
What makes it thrive here?
08:59.866 --> 09:02.766 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Yes, well, the Finger Lakes
are in a very special place.
09:02.900 --> 09:04.933 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
So basically,
it's a collection of 11 lakes
09:05.066 --> 09:08.266 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
that are carved
really deep glacial lakes.
09:08.400 --> 09:11.100 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
And so, we're in
a true cool climate,
09:11.233 --> 09:14.566 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
but the lakes moderate the
very harsh winters that we get.
09:14.700 --> 09:17.000 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
And also, we have a myriad
of different soil types
09:17.133 --> 09:20.100 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
which is really interesting for
grape growing and winemaking.
09:20.233 --> 09:22.800 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
And so, for us,
really making wines
09:22.933 --> 09:24.666 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
with the true sense
of place is important.
09:24.800 --> 09:27.633 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
and to showcase those
differences with the soil.
09:27.766 --> 09:29.333 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Well, you've had many
generations of your family
09:29.466 --> 09:32.966 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
now making wine, growing grapes.
09:33.100 --> 09:34.933 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
So, you have to have
some kind of a philosophy,
09:35.066 --> 09:37.433 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
an ethos if you will,
09:37.566 --> 09:41.733 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
to grape growing
and winemaking.
09:41.866 --> 09:42.733 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
What is that philosophy?
09:42.866 --> 09:43.900 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
What is that ethos?
09:44.033 --> 09:46.566 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
Well, you know, we're really
trying to make wines
09:46.700 --> 09:48.300 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
with a sense of place.
09:48.433 --> 09:50.366 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
So, it's something
we call terroir.
09:50.500 --> 09:53.833 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Something to really express
where we are in the world.
09:53.966 --> 09:57.566 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
The soil, we're actually in
a very special block of Riesling
09:57.700 --> 09:59.333 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
named for my great grandmother
09:59.466 --> 10:01.100 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
with a really high content
of shale in the soil.
10:01.233 --> 10:02.300 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:35%
[Capri] Shale?
10:02.433 --> 10:03.366 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:35%
[Meaghan] Yes.
10:03.500 --> 10:06.633 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
[Capri] Okay, so terroir
I know means "land"
10:06.766 --> 10:09.300 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
or "soil" in French.
10:09.433 --> 10:10.366 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
But what does that mean
10:10.500 --> 10:12.200 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
as it applies to grape growing
in winemaking?
10:12.333 --> 10:14.666 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
What does that term terroir mean
in this context?
10:14.800 --> 10:15.866 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
Absolutely.
10:16.000 --> 10:19.433 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
Well, Riesling is the most
transparent of terroir,
10:19.566 --> 10:20.666 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
of all of the grapes.
10:20.800 --> 10:24.966 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
So, it's really expressing
the soil, the land,
10:25.100 --> 10:26.333 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
also the people.
10:26.466 --> 10:27.700 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
The people farming.
10:27.833 --> 10:28.966 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
The people making the wine.
10:29.100 --> 10:30.100 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
[Capri] I love that.
10:30.233 --> 10:33.600 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
So terroir really
is capturing everything
10:33.733 --> 10:37.900 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
that goes into growing that
grape and making that wine.
10:38.033 --> 10:38.966 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
[Meaghan] Yes, exactly.
10:39.100 --> 10:41.866 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
And one thing we do
prior to harvesting
10:42.000 --> 10:44.166 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
is we're always looking
at the sugar.
10:46.500 --> 10:47.633 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
[Capri] Before harvesting,
10:47.766 --> 10:49.700 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
winemakers measure
the sugar content
10:49.833 --> 10:51.933 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
in a device called
the refractometer.
10:52.066 --> 10:53.633 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
This measures the grape sugar
10:53.766 --> 10:56.200 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
which tells us how mature
the grapes are.
10:56.333 --> 10:59.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
And what we're going to do
is hold this up to the light
10:59.366 --> 11:01.866 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
and then adjust it.
11:02.000 --> 11:03.566 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
And then you can see the bricks.
11:03.700 --> 11:05.033 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
[Capri] That's like
a view finder.
11:05.166 --> 11:06.433 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
So, I'll have you take a look.
11:06.566 --> 11:08.233 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
So, you're going to see a line
11:08.366 --> 11:11.266 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
and that tells you
the percentage of sugar.
11:13.400 --> 11:16.833 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
All right, so what
I'm seeing here
11:16.966 --> 11:20.800 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
is it looks like it's like
a half blue half white.
11:20.933 --> 11:21.966 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
[Fred] Correct.
11:22.100 --> 11:23.966 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
And the blue is over like, 18.
11:24.100 --> 11:25.200 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
[Fred] Yes.
11:25.333 --> 11:26.900 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
What does that mean
in laymen's terms?
11:27.033 --> 11:29.966 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
That means it's about
18 1/2 bricks.
11:30.100 --> 11:33.233 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
So, we know that these grapes
are not ready for picking.
11:33.366 --> 11:35.400 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
[Capri] A dry Riesling
like this one,
11:35.533 --> 11:38.800 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
should be harvested
between 20 and 23 bricks.
11:38.933 --> 11:41.033 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
So, this cluster
is not quite ready.
11:42.033 --> 11:43.833 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
The winery uses
machine harvesters
11:43.966 --> 11:45.766 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:77.5%
for the majority of the season.
11:45.900 --> 11:47.800 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
But for this single
vineyard Riesling,
11:47.933 --> 11:50.900 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:72.5%
hand harvesting ensures that
only the highest quality grapes
11:51.033 --> 11:52.833 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
are picked at the right time.
11:53.700 --> 11:56.800 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
Just snip at the stem and then
you can just kind of toss it in.
11:56.933 --> 11:57.866 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
Toss it in the bin.
11:58.000 --> 11:58.966 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
Snip at the stem, okay.
11:59.100 --> 12:00.800 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
Snip at the stem.
Look at you.
12:05.600 --> 12:09.200 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
I can literally feel like
this explosion of tartness
12:09.333 --> 12:10.966 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
on the back of my tongue.
12:11.100 --> 12:14.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
I don't think I've ever had
a grape that good.
12:14.366 --> 12:17.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
Probably because I've not had
a grape directly off the vine.
12:17.300 --> 12:19.500 align:start position:40% line:79.33% size:22.5%
But also,
maybe I'm tasting the terroir.
12:19.633 --> 12:21.266 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
Maybe I'm tasting the terroir.
12:21.400 --> 12:23.933 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
So, we got four,
five seeds here.
12:24.066 --> 12:26.000 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
Some of them are brown
and some of them are green.
12:26.133 --> 12:27.233 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
Does that matter?
12:27.366 --> 12:31.600 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
Yes, well the brown are
showing that it's ripe grapes.
12:31.733 --> 12:34.833 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
And the flavors
that you're experiencing
12:34.966 --> 12:37.800 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
will translate into
wonderful flavors in the wine.
12:39.833 --> 12:41.933 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
[Capri] After the ripe
grape clusters are harvested,
12:42.066 --> 12:45.133 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
they're taken to a mechanical
sorting table where over-ripe
12:45.266 --> 12:46.766 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
or damaged grapes are removed.
12:47.966 --> 12:50.266 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
After that,
they're ready for "crush,"
12:50.400 --> 12:51.533 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
the winemakers term
12:51.666 --> 12:53.433 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
for extracting the juice
from the fruit.
12:55.000 --> 12:57.333 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
Using a machine called
a crusher destemmer,
12:57.466 --> 12:59.266 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
the team at Dr. Frank's
12:59.400 --> 13:02.066 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
removes the stems and leaves
from the clusters
13:02.200 --> 13:03.866 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
after which the grapes
are pressed
13:04.000 --> 13:06.733 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
and their juices sent
to the cellar for fermentation.
13:08.366 --> 13:10.400 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
[Meaghan] A lot of
stainless-steel tanks.
13:10.533 --> 13:12.600 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
And that's because we do
a lot of Riesling,
13:12.733 --> 13:14.100 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
and we do aromatic varieties.
13:14.233 --> 13:16.233 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
So, we really need
a controlled fermentation.
13:16.366 --> 13:17.300 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Okay.
13:17.433 --> 13:19.433 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
You know, so we need
a really cool temperature
13:19.566 --> 13:22.233 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
during the fermentation
so that all of those aromas
13:22.366 --> 13:23.766 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
don't just blow off
with the heat--
13:23.900 --> 13:24.833 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Okay.
13:24.966 --> 13:25.833 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
--during the fermentation.
13:25.966 --> 13:27.300 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And so that's why you use
stainless steel
13:27.433 --> 13:28.866 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
as opposed to like, a barrel?
13:29.000 --> 13:30.100 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:20%
Correct.
13:30.233 --> 13:31.433 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Because I guess like,
in my head,
13:31.566 --> 13:37.366 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
when I think wine fermentation,
I think wood barrel.
13:37.500 --> 13:39.666 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
So basically,
it's just an inert vessel.
13:39.800 --> 13:42.933 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
So, we're just looking
for the purity coming through
13:43.066 --> 13:44.366 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
from that juice.
13:44.500 --> 13:45.700 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
We're going to add some yeast.
13:45.833 --> 13:48.266 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
The yeast is going to convert
the sugar and the grape juice.
13:48.400 --> 13:49.366 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
That's the fermentation process.
13:49.500 --> 13:51.633 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
That's the fermentation process
into alcohol.
13:51.766 --> 13:55.500 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
You've thrown out a lot of
stuff which makes me think like,
13:55.633 --> 13:58.700 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Dr. Konstantin Frank,
I can see why you need a PhD
13:58.833 --> 14:00.633 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
to run an operation like this.
14:00.766 --> 14:01.633 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:25%
I love it.
14:01.766 --> 14:04.400 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
How do you know
when something is ready
14:04.533 --> 14:05.666 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
in the fermentation process?
14:05.800 --> 14:07.133 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Do you taste it throughout?
14:07.266 --> 14:08.133 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:15%
We do.
14:08.266 --> 14:09.900 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
Yeah, and we're also
testing the sugar
14:10.033 --> 14:11.333 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
that's left in the juice.
14:11.466 --> 14:14.300 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
So, it's really important,
especially for our Rieslings,
14:14.433 --> 14:16.900 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
because we do some
sweeter styles of Riesling.
14:17.033 --> 14:18.333 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
You have to be really fine-tuned
14:18.466 --> 14:20.266 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
on when you're going
to stop the fermentation.
14:20.400 --> 14:21.400 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Okay.
14:21.533 --> 14:24.233 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
I'm really curious about
what something tastes like
14:24.366 --> 14:26.833 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
midway through
this fermentation process.
14:26.966 --> 14:28.333 align:start position:37.5% line:79.33% size:27.5%
Absolutely.
Well, let's try some.
14:28.466 --> 14:29.466 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Okay.
14:29.600 --> 14:30.533 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
And that's something
that you would normally do.
14:30.666 --> 14:31.533 align:start position:45% line:79.33% size:10%
Yes.
Absolutely.
14:31.666 --> 14:32.533 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:25%
Every day.
14:32.666 --> 14:33.633 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
[Capri] Every day.
14:33.766 --> 14:35.166 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yep.
14:35.300 --> 14:37.533 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
[Capri] Now I'm really curious
about this.
14:38.866 --> 14:40.200 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
If you're looking
for the sugars--
14:40.333 --> 14:41.266 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:17.5%
We are.
14:41.400 --> 14:43.300 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
And we're also looking
for particular flavors
14:43.433 --> 14:45.066 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
and no off aromas.
14:46.466 --> 14:47.800 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
[Meaghan] Here we go.
14:47.933 --> 14:49.600 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
Okay, so you're going to have
to walk me through this.
14:49.733 --> 14:51.800 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
What am I looking for
mid-fermentation?
14:51.933 --> 14:53.233 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
I mean, it looks pretty cloudy.
14:53.366 --> 14:55.233 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
So, like I said,
I'm not sure about that,
14:55.366 --> 14:56.700 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
but what are we looking for--
14:56.833 --> 14:59.200 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
You said you're
looking for off aromas.
14:59.333 --> 15:00.500 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Yeah.
15:00.633 --> 15:03.466 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
We're just looking to see if the
fermentation needs anything.
15:03.600 --> 15:04.900 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
So, throughout
the fermentation
15:05.033 --> 15:07.466 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
sometimes it needs
a little bit of air.
15:07.600 --> 15:08.633 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
It needs some nutrient.
15:08.766 --> 15:09.633 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
It needs something.
15:09.766 --> 15:11.566 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
And yeast is a living
organism, right?
15:11.700 --> 15:12.600 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
That's right.
15:12.733 --> 15:13.600 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
So, it changes.
15:13.733 --> 15:14.800 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
15:14.933 --> 15:16.400 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
And it sounds like you need
to change the chemistry
15:16.533 --> 15:18.633 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
depending on what mood
the yeast is in.
15:18.766 --> 15:19.766 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
That's exactly right.
15:19.900 --> 15:21.100 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
Alright, I'm catching on.
15:21.233 --> 15:22.400 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
All right, so...
15:22.533 --> 15:24.900 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
I don't think I smell
anything off.
15:25.033 --> 15:26.933 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
Yes, it smells really fruity,
really fresh.
15:27.066 --> 15:28.000 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yep.
15:28.133 --> 15:29.533 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
And I see a little bit
of bubble in that.
15:29.666 --> 15:31.633 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
Yes, that's the carbon dioxide
15:31.766 --> 15:33.200 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
which is the by-product
of fermentation.
15:33.333 --> 15:34.500 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Okay.
15:34.633 --> 15:37.266 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
And it's going to blow
right off but it is present.
15:37.933 --> 15:38.933 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:20%
Oh, yum.
15:39.066 --> 15:40.866 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
I am pleasantly surprised.
15:41.300 --> 15:42.466 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
It's a little tart.
15:42.600 --> 15:43.500 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:30%
Very fruity.
15:43.633 --> 15:44.500 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Yeah, it's tart and fruity.
15:44.633 --> 15:45.500 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
15:45.633 --> 15:46.933 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
It's still a little bit like
the juice.
15:47.066 --> 15:48.000 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
[Meaghan] It is.
15:48.133 --> 15:50.033 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
So, if you were to just have
a fruit juice--
15:50.166 --> 15:51.600 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
it would taste
a little bit more like this.
15:51.733 --> 15:54.566 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
And it does have more sugar
so I guess we're not there yet.
15:54.700 --> 15:55.733 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
We're not there yet.
15:55.866 --> 15:56.866 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
We're getting there.
15:57.000 --> 15:58.066 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
And do I get to try anymore?
15:58.200 --> 15:59.200 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
Absolutely.
15:59.333 --> 16:00.866 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
Yeah, let's definitely try some
16:01.000 --> 16:03.433 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
throughout maybe further along
in this process.
16:05.333 --> 16:07.433 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
[Capri] After about six months
of fermentation,
16:07.566 --> 16:09.933 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
the wine is finished
and ready to pour.
16:10.800 --> 16:12.466 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
These are all same grade
16:12.600 --> 16:14.200 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
but totally different
manifestations.
16:14.333 --> 16:15.200 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
Walk me through it.
16:15.333 --> 16:16.566 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
Absolutely.
16:16.700 --> 16:18.800 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
So, we're going to start with
one of our sparkling Rieslings.
16:18.933 --> 16:21.666 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
Sparkling is one of my favorites
in general in life.
16:21.800 --> 16:22.666 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:17.5%
Cheers.
16:22.800 --> 16:23.933 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:17.5%
Cheers.
16:27.500 --> 16:28.833 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
Oh, that's yummy.
16:28.966 --> 16:30.633 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
So, this is made
in the traditional method.
16:30.766 --> 16:32.266 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
So, Méthode Champenoise,
16:32.400 --> 16:34.166 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
and you get that same
kind of apple flavor
16:34.300 --> 16:35.433 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
and aroma that we were tasting
in the fermentation.
16:35.566 --> 16:36.433 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:35%
Wait a minute.
16:36.566 --> 16:37.600 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
I was going to say,
16:37.733 --> 16:39.133 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
so this is the thing that
we taste mid-fermentation?
16:39.266 --> 16:40.300 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
16:40.433 --> 16:42.866 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
So, that is during our
primary fermentation point.
16:43.000 --> 16:45.366 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
So, in order to make this style
of sparkling wine,
16:45.500 --> 16:46.833 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
we actually have to go through
16:46.966 --> 16:49.866 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
and actually make
a dry table wine first.
16:50.000 --> 16:53.600 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And then once we do that,
we bottle it in very thick glass
16:53.733 --> 16:55.600 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
because that is going to have
to go through
16:55.733 --> 16:57.000 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
a secondary fermentation.
16:57.133 --> 16:58.666 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
So that's what
keeps it sparkling?
16:58.800 --> 16:59.900 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
That's right.
17:00.033 --> 17:03.166 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
So, the next wine is actually
the wine that we sampled,
17:03.300 --> 17:04.566 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
the grapes in the vineyard.
17:04.700 --> 17:06.066 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
So, this is Eugenia.
17:06.200 --> 17:07.633 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
It's one of our single veneer
dry Rieslings.
17:07.766 --> 17:09.233 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
Eugenia and that's your
great grandmother.
17:09.366 --> 17:10.333 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
Great grandmother, yes.
17:10.466 --> 17:11.533 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
Yeah, the wife of Konstantin.
17:11.666 --> 17:12.633 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
Oh, that warms my heart.
17:12.766 --> 17:13.766 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
Okay, we're going to try this.
17:13.900 --> 17:15.166 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
It's for all
the great grandmothers, right?
17:15.300 --> 17:16.233 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
It's for all
the great grandmothers,
17:16.366 --> 17:17.400 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:25%
all right.
17:19.533 --> 17:20.600 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
Oh, that's also lovely.
17:20.733 --> 17:22.266 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
It is a little bit sweeter.
17:22.400 --> 17:23.300 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:20%
Hmm huh.
17:23.433 --> 17:25.266 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
But it's not overly sweet.
17:25.400 --> 17:26.533 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:17.5%
Mmm-mm.
17:26.666 --> 17:28.266 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
It's got that bright acidity
and it's got that freshness.
17:28.400 --> 17:29.366 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Yeah.
17:29.500 --> 17:31.066 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
And you even taste
almost like a mineral focus.
17:31.200 --> 17:33.933 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
Yes, it's the terroir.
17:34.066 --> 17:34.933 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
It's the terroir.
17:35.066 --> 17:36.233 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
So now I'm putting
all the pieces together.
17:36.366 --> 17:37.533 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
17:37.666 --> 17:40.133 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
The final is actually one of our
dessert styles of Riesling.
17:40.266 --> 17:41.966 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
So, if you remember
in the vineyard,
17:42.100 --> 17:43.300 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
and also on the sorting table,
17:43.433 --> 17:46.066 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
we saw those grapes that almost
were turning into raisins.
17:46.200 --> 17:47.266 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:10%
Yes.
17:47.400 --> 17:50.600 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
So, they're affected
by a rot that occurs naturally,
17:50.733 --> 17:52.133 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
it's called Botrytis cinerea.
17:52.266 --> 17:54.633 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:77.5%
It's a noble rot, and this wine
17:54.766 --> 17:57.333 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
actually has a portion
of those raisin grapes inside.
17:57.466 --> 17:58.533 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
Oh, interesting.
17:58.666 --> 17:59.533 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
They are a noble rot.
17:59.666 --> 18:00.800 align:start position:37.5% line:79.33% size:27.5%
Why do they
call them a noble rot?
18:00.933 --> 18:04.333 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
Yeah, it's just a very
sought-after sort of way
18:04.466 --> 18:05.700 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
to make dessert wine.
18:05.833 --> 18:08.800 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
You know, going back hundreds
of years in Germany and France,
18:08.933 --> 18:11.166 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
it's how they make the most
prized dessert wines
18:11.300 --> 18:12.266 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
from the world.
18:12.400 --> 18:14.100 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
And it's changing the chemistry
of the grapes.
18:14.233 --> 18:16.333 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
You're increasing the acidity
and the sugar.
18:16.466 --> 18:17.333 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:22.5%
Oh, okay.
18:17.466 --> 18:18.333 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
And adding flavor.
18:18.466 --> 18:20.000 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
So, it's like,
nature's way of doing it
18:20.133 --> 18:21.500 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
in advance on the vine.
18:21.633 --> 18:23.100 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
Yes, let's try it.
18:25.666 --> 18:27.400 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
Mmm, that is nice.
That is nice.
18:27.533 --> 18:28.666 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
It's sweet but not too sweet.
18:28.800 --> 18:29.800 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
That's right.
Yep. Very tropical.
18:29.933 --> 18:31.200 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
That is really good.
18:31.333 --> 18:34.733 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
You really have
an incredible legacy here.
18:34.866 --> 18:36.166 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Thank you very much, Capri.
18:36.300 --> 18:37.500 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
And it's wonderful to see you
continuing it on.
18:37.633 --> 18:38.600 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
I know that your
great grandparents
18:38.733 --> 18:39.833 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
would be absolutely
proud of you.
18:39.966 --> 18:41.133 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:35%
Oh, thank you.
18:41.266 --> 18:42.733 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
And everything you put into
every bottle and every glass.
18:42.866 --> 18:43.833 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
So, cheers.
18:43.966 --> 18:45.133 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
Thank you so much, Capri.
You have to come back.
18:45.266 --> 18:46.366 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
To the next 100 years.
18:46.500 --> 18:48.000 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
That's right.
The next 100 years.
18:49.466 --> 18:51.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
[Capri] Grape berries are
the most recognizable product
18:51.833 --> 18:52.900 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
of the vine,
18:53.033 --> 18:54.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
but they're not the only
part of the plant
18:54.833 --> 18:57.133 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
with beloved
culinary traditions.
18:58.166 --> 18:59.433 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
Beth and Mohammad Alfayad's
18:59.566 --> 19:02.966 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
Rochester restaurant, Levantine,
serves cuisine
19:03.100 --> 19:06.233 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
inspired by Mohammad's
home country of Syria.
19:06.366 --> 19:10.200 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
Yalenji, are rolled grape leaves
brined in water and salt
19:10.333 --> 19:11.600 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
and stuffed with a filling
19:11.733 --> 19:15.233 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
of rice, fresh herbs,
lemon and vegetables
19:15.366 --> 19:18.133 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
and are a favorite of Mohammad
and his mother Entesar.
19:21.166 --> 19:23.233 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
I know the restaurant that
you have is Levatine's, right?
19:23.366 --> 19:24.366 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
Levatine's, yes.
19:24.500 --> 19:25.500 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
What does that mean?
19:25.633 --> 19:27.000 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
What is the connection there?
19:27.133 --> 19:28.633 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
Yeah, so it took us a while
19:28.766 --> 19:31.033 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
to decide on the name
for our restaurant.
19:31.166 --> 19:34.300 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
But one of the things that we
kept coming back to was the idea
19:34.433 --> 19:39.033 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
that all of the borders in the
Middle East are relatively new
19:39.166 --> 19:43.066 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
compared to the history of the
cuisine and the culture there.
19:43.200 --> 19:46.700 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
So, we decided that paying
homage to the name of the region
19:46.833 --> 19:48.233 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
was the best way to go
19:48.366 --> 19:50.066 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
to acknowledge
that we're pulling in
19:50.200 --> 19:51.933 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
a long history
of cooking traditions
19:52.066 --> 19:53.600 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:70%
that extend past the borders
19:53.733 --> 19:55.266 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
that were created
in the last century.
19:55.400 --> 19:56.600 align:start position:42.5% line:79.33% size:15%
Right.
I love that inclusiveness.
19:56.733 --> 20:02.400 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
Now, I have to go back because
I know you've learned so much
20:02.533 --> 20:04.233 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
from your mom
and in the last two seconds,
20:04.366 --> 20:06.700 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
I've learned that I'm doing it
all wrong from your mom.
20:06.833 --> 20:08.733 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
So, would you please
show me again?
20:08.866 --> 20:11.166 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I'm like, here I am doing what--
20:11.300 --> 20:12.900 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
I don't even know
what I'm doing.
20:13.033 --> 20:14.800 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
So, show me what I'm doing.
20:14.933 --> 20:19.933 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
[Entesar] These, face--
I need these face up.
20:20.066 --> 20:21.633 align:start position:40% line:79.33% size:20%
Face up,
that's where the stems are.
20:21.766 --> 20:22.700 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
[Entesar] Yeah.
20:22.833 --> 20:23.866 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
So, the rough side.
20:24.000 --> 20:26.166 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
[Entesar] I put the rice
like a line.
20:26.300 --> 20:28.566 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
[Capri] Fold in and fold in
those leaves.
20:28.700 --> 20:30.600 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:25%
In and up.
20:30.733 --> 20:31.900 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
[Entesar] Tight.
20:32.033 --> 20:34.033 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
[Capri] Tight.
Okay.
20:34.166 --> 20:35.333 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
And you make it look so easy.
20:35.466 --> 20:38.333 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
So, we roll these and then
how long do you have to wait
20:38.466 --> 20:39.833 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
or how long do they--
20:39.966 --> 20:42.933 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
Sometimes I can cook
in the evening,
20:43.066 --> 20:48.033 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
maybe sometimes morning,
to be cold.
20:48.166 --> 20:49.200 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
How many hours?
20:49.333 --> 20:51.233 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:47.5%
Maybe four or five.
20:51.366 --> 20:53.566 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
So, I got to start early
in the morning.
20:53.700 --> 20:54.666 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Yeah.
20:55.600 --> 20:56.466 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Yeah.
20:56.600 --> 20:58.900 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
It's the part I miss
when I sleep in.
20:59.033 --> 21:03.033 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
They wake up and,
oh, a nice smell.
21:03.166 --> 21:04.333 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
What are you cooking?
21:04.466 --> 21:07.633 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
That's the easiest way to get
somebody out of bed, right?
21:07.766 --> 21:11.633 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
You smell that smell,
and they're going to be excited.
21:12.833 --> 21:14.866 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
[Mohammad] We have
drained the filling
21:15.000 --> 21:18.566 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
from the cold nice juices
we cooked
21:18.700 --> 21:20.800 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
like lemon juice,
pomegranate, molasses.
21:20.933 --> 21:22.900 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
We going to use that
in the broth.
21:23.033 --> 21:23.900 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
[Capri] Okay.
21:24.033 --> 21:27.900 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
With some tomato sauce.
21:28.033 --> 21:32.133 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And we're going to put it
in like a pot.
21:32.266 --> 21:35.533 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
Have some weight on it because
when it's cooking and boiling,
21:35.666 --> 21:41.166 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
you'll be risking it to reopen
and release all the rice.
21:41.333 --> 21:42.400 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
You don't want that.
21:42.533 --> 21:44.000 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
[Mohammad] So, you got to have
some weight on top.
21:44.133 --> 21:46.766 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
And then you just put it
on low heat four hours
21:46.900 --> 21:49.533 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
and it should be ready.
21:49.666 --> 21:50.733 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:22.5%
Good job.
21:54.400 --> 21:59.066 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
Now, what are your earliest
memories of making this dish.
21:59.200 --> 22:01.200 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
Did you all make it together?
22:01.333 --> 22:06.833 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Always my grandmother
taught me, you have to do it.
22:09.066 --> 22:10.666 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
I was not allowed
to be in the kitchen.
22:10.800 --> 22:11.666 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:27.5%
[Capri] No?
22:11.800 --> 22:12.933 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
I forced my way.
22:13.066 --> 22:14.000 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
And you own a restaurant.
22:14.133 --> 22:16.966 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
She was like,
no that's not your place.
22:17.100 --> 22:19.533 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
Just focus on your study.
22:19.666 --> 22:21.400 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
And I was like, so interested.
22:21.533 --> 22:25.166 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:80%
Like, I see the raw ingredients,
and for a little kid,
22:25.300 --> 22:26.866 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
to me, it's like magic.
22:27.000 --> 22:27.866 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:22.5%
Oh, yeah.
22:28.000 --> 22:29.166 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:40%
But how can we--
22:29.300 --> 22:31.933 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
Like, these leaves
taste so good.
22:32.066 --> 22:34.766 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
I just want to learn
all the secrets.
22:34.900 --> 22:36.266 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:67.5%
[Capri] What did you learn?
22:36.400 --> 22:37.733 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
I was a good student, I think.
22:37.866 --> 22:38.833 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Yeah.
22:38.966 --> 22:41.366 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
So, my mom finally,
eventually,
22:41.500 --> 22:44.900 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
let me in the kitchen
and we were good team.
22:45.033 --> 22:46.133 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
I love that story.
22:46.266 --> 22:47.833 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
I love that story.
22:49.766 --> 22:51.433 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:65%
[Capri] The rolled Yalenji
are lined up
22:51.566 --> 22:53.666 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:32.5%
inside a pot
on top of vegetables
22:53.800 --> 22:55.100 align:start position:17.5% line:84.67% size:65%
before being weighed down
22:55.233 --> 22:56.933 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:77.5%
and submerged into tomato sauce
22:57.066 --> 22:59.366 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
for four to five hours
of simmering.
23:01.633 --> 23:04.000 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
Entesar along with
Mohammad's father, Fayad,
23:04.133 --> 23:05.700 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:77.5%
immigrated to the United States
23:05.833 --> 23:08.266 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
just weeks before
the COVID-19 pandemic
23:08.400 --> 23:10.233 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
nearly halted global travel.
23:10.466 --> 23:11.600 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:37.5%
You guys ready?
23:12.933 --> 23:14.433 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:42.5%
[Capri] A sizable
platter of Yalenji
23:14.566 --> 23:17.833 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
occupies a central place on
the table for this family meal
23:18.833 --> 23:21.200 align:start position:10% line:79.33% size:77.5%
with Mohammad's brother, Muham,
and Beth's parents,
23:21.333 --> 23:22.866 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:60%
Patty and Tom, joining.
23:24.433 --> 23:25.533 align:start position:37.5% line:79.33% size:25%
[Mohammad]
Just one last thing
23:25.666 --> 23:28.100 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
is a drizzle
of pomegranate molasses.
23:28.233 --> 23:29.600 align:start position:40% line:84.67% size:22.5%
Oh, whoa.
23:29.733 --> 23:31.233 align:start position:20% line:84.67% size:62.5%
Makes all the difference.
23:31.966 --> 23:34.333 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
We call this like the ultimate
Levantine comfort food.
23:37.733 --> 23:42.333 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
Mmm, the pomegranate,
which is the molasses,
23:42.466 --> 23:46.266 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
is the pomegranate juice
and the pomegranates
23:46.400 --> 23:49.600 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
are bringing out the freshness
of the mint to me,
23:49.733 --> 23:50.800 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:50%
which is just great.
23:50.933 --> 23:52.933 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:45%
And it's got to be
just really special,
23:53.066 --> 23:56.200 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:75%
the fact that you all are able
to eat like this so frequently.
23:56.333 --> 23:58.233 align:start position:32.5% line:84.67% size:35%
How was that--
23:58.366 --> 24:02.200 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
How did you all cope during
that time apart as a family?
24:02.333 --> 24:06.766 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:40%
The food is such
a great connection to me
24:06.900 --> 24:08.366 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:57.5%
like with the memories.
24:08.500 --> 24:13.133 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:57.5%
It reminds me of my mom
and time we spend together.
24:13.266 --> 24:18.133 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
Also, I feel like I want
to share it with Rochester.
24:18.266 --> 24:21.933 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
And anybody that comes to
my restaurant could experience
24:22.066 --> 24:24.366 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
all these flavors
that I grew up with.
24:25.033 --> 24:27.933 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
You all grew up here, right,
in upstate New York?
24:28.066 --> 24:29.200 align:start position:42.5% line:84.67% size:15%
Right.
24:29.333 --> 24:31.700 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
And I would suspect this
might be a little bit different
24:31.833 --> 24:32.900 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
than maybe some of the cuisine
24:33.033 --> 24:34.300 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
that you were used to
growing up.
24:34.433 --> 24:37.100 align:start position:45% line:79.33% size:10%
Yes.
Quite a bit.
24:37.233 --> 24:38.400 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
This is authentic.
24:38.533 --> 24:41.100 align:start position:12.5% line:79.33% size:77.5%
I mean, there is Middle Eastern
restaurants here in town
24:41.233 --> 24:43.133 align:start position:12.5% line:84.67% size:75%
but they're nothing like this.
24:43.266 --> 24:44.233 align:start position:45% line:84.67% size:12.5%
Yeah.
24:44.366 --> 24:47.266 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
I grew up in an Irish family.
24:47.400 --> 24:49.633 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:37.5%
It was strictly
meat and potatoes.
24:49.766 --> 24:54.100 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:72.5%
My dad lived with us but more
and more since we've retired,
24:54.233 --> 24:58.100 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
we've watched cooking shows
and we appreciate good food.
24:58.233 --> 24:59.266 align:start position:35% line:84.67% size:32.5%
You're right.
24:59.400 --> 25:02.166 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
People are recognizing
that they want to experience
25:02.300 --> 25:05.000 align:start position:15% line:79.33% size:70%
all different types of foods
regardless of their background.
25:05.133 --> 25:06.633 align:start position:27.5% line:79.33% size:47.5%
Whether you grew up
with meat and potatoes
25:06.766 --> 25:09.500 align:start position:32.5% line:79.33% size:35%
or you grew up
eating grape leaves
25:09.633 --> 25:12.266 align:start position:17.5% line:79.33% size:67.5%
as part of your family meal
every night
25:12.400 --> 25:14.100 align:start position:15% line:84.67% size:72.5%
or your birthday celebration.
25:14.233 --> 25:16.033 align:start position:22.5% line:84.67% size:55%
At the end of the day,
25:16.166 --> 25:19.366 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:52.5%
we all can understand
one another so much better
25:19.500 --> 25:21.666 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
when we can enjoy
each other's food.
25:21.800 --> 25:22.866 align:start position:27.5% line:84.67% size:45%
Thank you so much.
25:23.000 --> 25:24.066 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
I'm going to continue to dig in.
25:24.200 --> 25:25.166 align:start position:25% line:84.67% size:52.5%
Thank you for coming.
25:25.300 --> 25:26.266 align:start position:37.5% line:84.67% size:25%
Thank you.
25:27.933 --> 25:29.266 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:80%
[Capri] Here in upstate New York
25:29.400 --> 25:32.433 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:62.5%
the autumn grape harvest
remains a celebrated tradition
25:32.566 --> 25:34.033 align:start position:10% line:84.67% size:77.5%
in which generational knowledge
25:34.166 --> 25:35.866 align:start position:35% line:79.33% size:30%
blends with
modern innovation
25:36.000 --> 25:38.566 align:start position:30% line:79.33% size:42.5%
to create unique
vintages each year.
25:38.700 --> 25:40.733 align:start position:15% line:10% size:70%
From the concord grape pies
of Naples
25:40.866 --> 25:43.466 align:start position:12.5% line:10% size:75%
to the mineral rich Rieslings
of the Finger Lakes,
25:43.600 --> 25:47.400 align:start position:10% line:10% size:77.5%
the region's terroir is present
in every bite and sip.
25:50.233 --> 25:51.900 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5%
Creating a tapestry of taste
25:52.033 --> 25:54.166 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:55%
reflecting the people
who call it home.
25:54.966 --> 25:56.166 align:start position:15% line:10% size:72.5%
But why take my word for it,
25:56.300 --> 25:58.666 align:start position:10% line:10% size:77.5%
when you can come experience it
for yourself.
26:00.066 --> 26:01.900 align:start position:22.5% line:10% size:55%
America The Bountiful
26:02.033 --> 26:04.433 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:67.5%
is waiting for you and me.
26:06.366 --> 26:09.366 align:start position:17.5% line:10% size:67.5%

[announcer] America's farmers
have nourished us
26:15.800 --> 26:17.133 align:start position:30% line:84.67% size:42.5%
for generations,
26:17.266 --> 26:19.666 align:start position:25% line:79.33% size:50%
but today they face
unprecedented challenges.
26:20.966 --> 26:23.133 align:start position:20% line:79.33% size:60%
American Farmland Trust
works with farmers
26:23.266 --> 26:25.800 align:start position:22.5% line:79.33% size:55%
to help save the land
that sustains us.
26:25.933 --> 26:28.566 align:start position:25% line:10% size:52.5%
Together we can work
to keep America bountiful.
